Used Cooking Oil Collection and Recycling Services

The oil must be transferred to the fryers safely and the UCO needs to be transferred to a proper storage container where it can be picked up for recycling. Getting regular UCO pickups from Mahoney Environmental prevents UCO spills that can lead to injuries and reduces the risk of theft.

Commercial Grease Trap Cleaning and Installation Services

Every commercial kitchen should include functional grease traps to prevent fats, oil, and grease (FOG) from being washed down the drain. These materials can cause major damage within the sewer system which could lead to pollution. You may also violate local codes by allowing FOG to wash down your drains which could result in fines.

Grease traps help filter FOG from the draining water by using a system of baffles to separate these materials and contain them within the trap. The traps need to be cleaned out regularly as the FOG accumulates and can clog the traps which causes a range of problems for your kitchen.

The following problems can occur if your grease traps are not cleaned out:

Flooding in the kitchen
Foul odors
Expensive remediation
Contamination and health issues
Closure of your business

The grease trap installation, maintenance, and cleaning services from Mahoney Environmental include the following:

Regular maintenance: We can provide regular maintenance to check on your traps and provide cleaning and repairs as necessary.
Cleaning: We can clean out the built-up FOG regularly from your traps.
Rodding and jetting: We can remove clogs from your grease traps by rodding or jetting the traps.
Inspection report: Everything we do is written into a report that we provide to you on each visit.
History reports: We can form a history of all the work done on your traps with our inspection reports which helps us anticipate needed repairs and maintenance to prevent serious problems.
Emergency 24/7 cleanup: We can come to your business at any time to clean up messes and clear the traps.
Compliance with municipal and state regulations: Keeping your grease traps clean and functional with our cleaning and maintenance services will keep your business in compliance with municipal and state regulations and avoid fines.
